First, the move can act as a reliable [[recovery]] option due to its good distance and inability to cause helplessness. It plays a key role in Zero Suit Samus's strong recovery as she can use Flip Jump to gain horizontal distance, then double jump and use [[Boost Kick]] or double jump followed by Flip Jump and Boost Kick. It can also be used in tandem with her [[grab aerial|zair]] and [[Plasma Whip]].

It also has [[intangibility]] on frames 3-12 of the move.
